2016 Chevrolet Cruze

There is, finally, an all new Cruze coming.
And it does look quite nice. At least from these pictures.
It does fit nicely next to the new Malibu and Impala. Which now gives Chevrolet 3 nice looking sedans.
engines will probably be smaller Turbos. Competing with the new Civic which is getting a new 1.5 Liter Turbo for the next year.

Here is another picture of the 2016 Volt. Based on the same platform. You can see the similarities. More than ever, the Volt now looks like a hatchback, slightly more modern version of the Cruze.

And here is the Chinese version of the new Cruze. Unveiled last year.

Just like GM said, the US car is not the same. Which is great news.

As this Chinese model looks much cheaper. And quite convoluted next to the US version.

The Cruze does look a bit like a Hyundai. The trunk looks a bit small and droopy too. The Volt however, looks fantastic from the side, possibly a bit pointy at the front....Why not just use the same body for both? Pointy front for the Volt,'family' style split grill for the Cruze.
